Both Instagram and Vine will be useful in the classroom and the following are just a few ideas. I enjoyed investigating both and will keep exploring their uses.
INSTAGRAM
The following are photos of my class bulletin boards and walls. They were a hit last year with the students all over the school. I was asked the question, "Why do I decorate my room more than other teachers?" My reply was, "I do it because I enjoy it and shouldn't you like it also."
VINES
are 6 second video clips that can be used for students to create inferences. The purpose for these Vines are for students to infer what they are before they are completely revealed. Stop them before they reveal too much and discuss with your students what they could be.
Instagram can be used in the classroom to take pictures of the walls when filled with work. Once posted students can visit the site to see best works, vocabulary, notes and station work to highlight student work. Vines are excellent for quick inferencing, writing prompts, star students, book connections to settings and characters, so many more. These are fun sites with many advantages.
